GTP Rolex | Season 5 | Complete! Help Plan!

[polarbear345]

He is in the official V8Supercar series in Div3. He does other stuff to try get his iRating up which ends well... (He just said, on teamspeak, he fired off a guy who was "annoying" him)

Uhh he's now in the Cadillac at Watkins glen!

Kai#s and Cadillacs are in the same race as multiclass I have just been told.. You may well be in the same race .

We (cnd and I) were debating on purchasing the V8. I'll give it another go on Mel's account xD

This was Cnd's wreck almost exactly... It's scary...



Paul, you almost need iRacing...

 

[paulmac2k9]

What you mean?

I almost need iRacing?

You never need anything, but you really, really, really should get it!

http://www.iracing.com/ you currently get 2 free months! That'll get you to Black Friday when a year is 50 bucks.

 

[paulmac2k9]

Yeah.. Not happening, only have this laptop.

 

[polarbear345]

You may think it won't work...

....but it will. Cnd can vouch for it.

We also know a kid who has a less than stellar laptop. He doesn't even have the stands on the courses xD

Totally understand though. You outta work on that!

I have a 2013 year laptop, and it's completely fine with iracing. It will run on a toaster

I have a 2010ish and it works good.

Can't blame him though for not wanting to have some pretty graphics though.

However, let's compare iRacing to a lion. (With some top gear tossed in)

If you're being attacked by a lion, it doesn't matter if you are in a bungalow, or a mansion... The main thing is you're still being attacked by a lion!

Actually I tried a while ago, this is a 2009 or earlier laptop. I got as far as downloading all the add ons etc then it wouldn't open it.

So I am reluctant to try again.

Planning in upgrading to a desktop with enough power to run in easily and maybe a new wheel too but I have nothing to house a wider pedal set.

There is one guy in Global GT who became very rude for some reason then got banned but he isn't in the ban list yet .

 

[paulmac2k9]

Most likely a temp ban then.

Some temperary banishment are shown on the list.

Well hopefully that's sooner than later! We found a guy in the trucks that is

MORE CANADIAN THAN MEL.

Temp ban.... Watch out when they come back!

@Resh, give it some time

Well Polar the plan was September, October but that may be pushed back after my cars unforeseen expenses.. (It needed a new clutch etc..)

I will be checking my bank balance tomorrow and I get my paycheck this Friday I think..

My main issue is actually space.. I have nowhere really to put it and nothing to put a G27 on..

Do you have a TV tray? That's what I use for playstation. For computer I have it clamped to the desk, and I have a rug and brick to keep the pedals and chair in place.

Yes, my family makes fun of me.

 

[paulmac2k9]

I have.. This..

Old room setup though.

New room setup but now there's a small table with two drawers on it under the TV and the chest of drawers is to the side.

 

[Com Fox]

Do I see Gamecube? .

I guess I'll have to post a picture of my 'rig' sometime soon. You guys will love it.

 

[paulmac2k9]

Yup and I still have it 👍. Have Pokemon Colosseum in it atm .

 

[Com Fox]

I have to play my gamecube games on the Wii now, Pokemon Colosseum and Mario Kart Double Dash are my favourite gamecube games.

 

[paulmac2k9]

Gotcha Force is my personal favorite, played it once at a friends when I was like 9-10 and hunted a copy down .

I found a Mario Kart DD game at Mcdonalds (demo version) and I went to track it down (and that is when I call GCN Mario Circuit, McDonalds Circuit).

Good times, fighting with my brother for Paratroopa.

That's a kick butt crate type thing! You would be surprised about the G27 pedals. I have pretty much DFGT pedals... From the blue beast (Old logitech wheel from GT3) And the pedals aren't too much wider.

Do I see Gamecube? .

Resh; our favorite Australian Nintendo man!

I guess I'll have to post a picture of my 'rig' sometime soon. You guys will love it.

I'll get pictures of both of my "Rigs" I even have a pair of fall North Face gloves so I don't have to wash my hands as often xD

Blue Beast:

 

[paulmac2k9]

The DFGT pedals only just fit inside my "rig" (Plastic drawers - the drawers rig = Cockpit )

So not sure if G27 pedals will fit with the clutch as you can see I jammed it in at the bottom so the pedals can't move..

 

[polarbear345]

Found this gem on my phone! Pedals go under the tv tray and out a bit. I can't imagine your drawers (Those are pretty awesome actually. I'm being serious...) are much wider.

No pedals in the picture... I took it because this kid didn't believe me that I had two TV's and a wheel...

I showed him! xD

 

[Com Fox]

I might show my stuff when I go home from school .

 

[paulmac2k9]

You see though the inside is narrower than the outside. If you give me a measurement of the pedals, on the base width and I can tell you if they will fit.

If it does then I can confidently buy a G27 if not I'll have to search for something to accommodate.

(Btw your gear lever is on the wrong side )

 

[polarbear345]

Because Australia.

I'm getting close to heading to bed LOL!

Shall we bet if he takes it with the 3DS?

Will do Paul when I get home. I'll make a trip to google now actually...

You win .

Don't have a better camera device.

Awwwwwwh Yea! First shot!

And Paul; from the logitech forums....

Pedal body size (W x D x H) mm: 310 x 420 x 160

 

[paulmac2k9]

Width, D? Height.

I can work with the width stat though, 31cms will see if that fits .
